Our grocery bill has been out of control! There is only two of us but we can’t seem to stop buying groceries and eating. lol
If I had to choose only between AK and Epcot, I'd choose Epcot. I like the world showcase, and the exhibits and rides better. However, I haven't been to Epcot since the construction went up, not sure how that would affect my mood on it. If I had three days like your calendar, my choice would be MK, HS, Epcot.Non budget related question for my WDW peeps: if you only had half a day for a park would you choose epcot or animal kingdom and why?
I'm trying to figure out which parks I want to do for our 3 days in November (yes I'm still planning like its going to happen) and our breakdown will be:
Wednesday (arrival at 6 am) - mostly full park day (either epcot or AK)
Thursday - half a park day + Christmas party in the evening (either Epcot or AK)
Friday - full park day (leaning towards MK)
We're not really interested in trying to squeeze in Hollywood studios, unless someone can make a good argument for why we should check it out.
Honestly I have no idea what we spend on groceries for a month (there's just 2 of us). If I had to guess anywhere between 300-500. It depends on if we run out of things all at once, if I find deals on things we normally buy, and how much we impulse by at Costco. Damn you Costco!!
I hear ya. Four of us, two are teen boys and eating ALL meals and snacks (well, we order dinner once a week) at home. So.Much.Food.OMG, that's like our weekly grocery spend ($300). Right now it's me and 2 teen boys. They eat a lot.
Is it weird that one of the reasons I want to go to Epcot is because it's one of the only things I remember from going when I was like 7? Lol. I know I keep saying this is our first trip, and it is as a couple, but I'm considering it my first trip also since I don't remember my actual first trip. I was/am also hoping that the Ratatouille ride will be open by November. I love that movie!
Family of four here, and I don't grow anything out back or can anything My budget is typically $700 a month. I don't always stay in that parameter, sometimes and usually a bit over, once in a while under. Last month I spent $1300! Seems crazy to even write that amount, but that also includes "stuff" in there, not all straight food. This month so far I've spent $560.Out of curiosity, what do you guys budget for groceries every month and how many people do you feed? I felt like I was spending a LOT lately, but apparently I'm still under average when I googled it. How do people afford it?!
it doesn't help grocery budgets right now that there are no sales to speak of. i can keep ours lower traditionally by stocking up during sales but now our stores aren't even putting out sales flyers.

Is toy story mania, the midway mania ride/game? If so, I totally agree! We have the same ride/game at California adventure and it's one of my faves.1. Toy Story Mania. Seriously, I could ride this 20x in a row if they let me.
2. Aerosmith Rock n Roller Coaster. It's not for everyone but we still love it.
3. Sci Fi Dine in Theater. We're old enough to remember when drive in theaters were still popular so this adds some nostalgia for us.
It would be hard to pick which park to do 1/2 day since we love them all for different reasons. My dd would say HS as she loves Tower of Terror and the shows. She likes all the other rides as well. HS is smaller so less walking then AK. If we did AK for 1/2 day it would be to do safari, lion king show, Flight of Passage, and Everest as many times as humanly possible. My DD rode it 13 times in a row the last time we went. I baled on her after 10 times. The bird show is also really good.
